Moderna & The Global mRNA Supply Chain: Regulatory Lessons LearnedOne of the most important reminders I took away from Moderna’s experiences ushering its mRNA vaccine onto the global market is that a commercial manufacturing process must also be accompanied by a commercially ready supply chain. Though sufficient physical volumes of each raw material and a redundant supplier network are necessities, physical scale is not the only “CQA” for which we must account when commercializing our supply chain.

The RNA Therapeutics Supply Chain: A Platform of RelationshipsConversations digging into RNA-specific sourcing considerations have been few and far between. Enter Sanofi's Greg Troiano. Together, we delved into the nuances, challenges, and opportunities for growth that currently exist within the mRNA drug substance and drug product (i.e., mRNA-LNP) raw material sourcing worlds.
SUPPLY CHAIN VIDEOS
The oligo manufacturing paradigm is facing several different evolutions whether it be the transition to liquid-phase or hybrid synthesis. In this Advancing RNA Live clip, Camp4’s Satya Kuchimanchi explores how these manufacturing advancements are impacting our supply chain needs.
Together, this Advancing RNA panel briefly addresses the ongoing rise of synthetic pDNA, sharing the current benefits and limitations of working with this technology for plasmid production today.
Discover how regional manufacturing, risk-aware practices, and agile strategies are reshaping supply chains to deliver resilience, transparency, and sustainability in today’s complex global environment.
This Advancing RNA Live clip dives into the biggest challenges in mRNA purification and the critical debate on where to focus investment. Here, our three mRNA PD experts argue for a holistic process development strategy, challenging the traditional wisdom of optimizing the upstream process at any cost.
